As good a day as any for a siesta

So with the Jays taking a day off to return to Toronto with their tails between their legs after THE WORST ROAD TRIP IN FRANCHISE HISTORY (you could look it up), we figure it's probably a good time for us to take a breather as well.

We could take the day to pick through the entrails of the past two weeks and speculate as to the why's and how's and wherefore's...but we'll confess to having lost all perspective at this point. Whatever we write at this point is just going to be an angry screed, and we'd promised ourselves that we weren't going to go down that road this year. Even an anonymous blogger's got to have some standards.

Besides: It's baseball. We love it beyond all reason, but the fact that we've let this losing streak affect our mood to the extent that we have kinda takes all of the fun out of it.

In four months time, when the season is over and we're staring into another Canadian winter spent dreaming of diamonds while trying desperately to tune out the hockeyocracy, we're going to miss moments like yesterday, as bizarre as that may sound.

Please tell me that JP has considered bringing up the entire Las Vegas roster to play the game on Friday against Wake. The last thing I want is for everyone's swing to get even worse - to the point that we're looking at an 18 game losing streak...

AS much as I slag on Dorito head and Clemens was right btw this exposes another problem. Retardi put this team together and this is what happened last year BUT even worse.This group of people like the Pop-Up King Wells and Lazy Ass Rios are ungamers. they are not winners. Retardi knew Rios was a bum and signed him long term...to do what? Stare at balls leaving the ballpark. Mind you, Dorito the cito's stubbornness in changing the lineup doesn't help either. Add to the fact that his bullpen management sucks, the Jays have a recipe for disaster.It is a shame that the only team in Kanada is on a tailspin right now, but people in the movement are patient and are waiting for the removal of Dorito. That Texas hayseed Clemens was on to something wasn't he?A True Blue, Jays FanThe Rogers made a mega profit last yeat, they couldn't plow money back into the team when they lost Burnett? It's really a joke. Add to that Retardi's big nosed visage mixed in with his ugly,brutal Unryan lies and the end is nigh.And to the fans ,who want to give up....don't. Dorito Brains will be out soon and we will have peace. Perhaps someone in the organization like Butterfield will get his chance. Another thing, this BS will stop people talking about the wonderful 2010 team. Please shut up about that, because if it's the same core of players with Cito as manager ,they are fighting for the cellar next year.Poor Halladay gives the team two great starts and you see what happens....garbage!I know that he and Brandi talk about loyalty etc so on...BUT to this type of crap? I hope that for the fan's sake he stays, but something tells me he's bloody well had enough. quite honestly,the true fans respect this guy more than any other player SAVE the World Series team players.
